Eau de...? Prize Draw

At the Perfume Expo America I had a pleasure to have a scent custom made for me by the très charmant and très patient François Hénin of Jovoy. Here he is, measuring, diluting and bottling.

The scent is a blend of rose, patchouli, amber, vanilla, woods...and a "secret ingredient" that smells oily, waxy, slightly salty, and which gave the fragrance its slightly retro, powdery-snaky base. M. Hénin described the perfume as "animalic and a little bit masculine". I would describe it as unequivocaly feminine, softly-skanky, glamorous slash comforting. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to name my scent. The author of a winning entry, chosen by moi, will receive a set of 30 samples, also chosen by moi, and I promise they will be quite exciting. The draw is now closed.

In the meantime, the winner of the Guerlain Les Voyages Olfactifs sample draw is Tammy. Please send us your address using the contact link on the right.

Have a fabulous July 4th weekend, everybody!
